What is Anti-Racism Week?
Anti-Racism Week is being held from March 14-21. It culminates on Human Rights Day in South Africa and the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The week is an annual campaign, organised by the Anti-Racism Network South Africa (ARNSA) in a bid to tackle racism and create awareness nationally.
ANC struggle veteran Ahmed Kathrada was yesterday admitted to a Johannesburg hospital for surgery relating to blood clotting on the brain.
The Ahmed Kathrada Foundation calls on leaders from all sectors of society to publicly condemn the recent xenophobic incidents and rally their constituencies against anti-foreigner sentiment.
By Ahmed Kathrada I am writing this as an interested individual and also as one who happened to have been among the beneficiaries of former President de Klerk’s decisions. I do not hold a position in any public organisation and remain a rank-and-file member of my ANC branch. Much has been said and written about…
It is a great honour for me to be invited to speak at the 2015 Ahmed Kathrada Annual Lecture.
The 14th of November 2015, was an historic day. It was on this day that the Anti-Racism Network South Africa (ARNSA) was officially launched by some 60 civil society organisations.
The Ahmed Kathrada Foundation welcomes the Racism Stops With Me campaign by the Independent Media and its partners.
I want to begin by complimenting the ANC Johannesburg Region, the Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) Military Veterans’ Association and the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation for hosting a memorial lecture in honour of fallen heroes and heroines of our liberation struggle.
Statement by Neeshan Balton, Director of the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation:
“The Ahmed Kathrada Foundation strongly condemns the racist comments and views that infer that black people are like barbarians and should not be allowed onto public beaches.
